Yes we have some experienced hitters. However poor bowling can only take us so far. We will get beaten before the finals if we can't get a stable bowling combination which doesn't give 190-200 runs consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asterix Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Batting line up is excellent however I do not see any role of Faf in the team. Rayudu needs to open the innings. He’s getting wasted down the order.Wiley should play instead of Faf.Chahar should come back in place if Asif when fit. Asif has potential but has no variation and bowls lots of short pitch deliveries..Karn Sharma is struggling. Any other spinner on the bench?Bowling is not weak, the catch drops are hurting the bowling. Jaddu will play all the matches. Yesterday’s catch drops were intentional. Dhoni too knows it. It’s very easy to drop the catches without raising suspicion. Just keep your hands hard and the ball will pop out. Watch closely Jaddu’s second drop.CSK fans shouldn’t think too much about yesterday’s match. CSK could’ve won the match easily if it wanted to.

After the comeback, its a true pan India team. Everyone loves them, never will you so many supporters chanting for opposition team in their own stadium. velu, Detonator and Garuda 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ipl is fun Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Vijay has been given one chance. watto, vijay Raina, Rayudu, MSD, Faf/Billings, Willey, Sir/Bhaji, Karn, Thakur/Chahar, Wood/Ngidi Bravo can get rest next one while Watto can get rest the following. With Willey, there is another leftie. So Sir can sit out too. MSD will have 6 bowling options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be great if he does. >Batting deep, bowling quantity maybe not quality This would be definitely better than what we have now. If MSD does not want to make Narine out of Willey in batting, get Rayudu to open in your line up and let Willey bat before Bravo get L/R combo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maniac Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 a team with 30+ year old has beens and trundlers who barely hit 125 clicks should never be a template of what consists of a successful T20 team....it’s either a big fluke like Kenya qualifying for semis or “external” factors at play.

Something new is backing team mates and not throwing them under a bus. Something refreshing is taking full responsibility for failure . something not seen with the CSK team is giving opposition the respect it deserves and being sporting and keeping with the spirit of the game. Ofcourse these are not new and invented, may be you have forgotten these ethics and morals exist since time immemorial because of the team you follow but great leaders always have this integrity.

Also, ask him to learn something new and win for a change and lead his team to playoffs beating stronger teams... He cannot throw his teammates anywhere, because he is worst than them... a captain has to get respect from his team for them to even listen to him... so i guess only thing left for him is to take the responsibility for his failures or else his team will throw him under the bus... And since you are satisfied with mediocre results...you shall continue with mediocre captains and keep loosing... Garuda 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
